Can I have a multi currency store without using Shopify Payment Method?

Topic summary

Topic: Enabling multi-currency without Shopify Payments for a service store (base currency INR) and letting customers see EUR, USD, and GBP prices before checkout while using PayPal and Razorpay.

Key points:

  • The core need is price display in customers’ local currencies pre-checkout, not necessarily multi-currency payment processing.
  • A participant recommended using a currency conversion app from the Shopify App Store.

Latest updates:

  • The store owner installed a currency converter app and confirmed it works for showing prices in customers’ currencies before checkout.
  • Another participant suggested a possible multi-currency checkout path via Stripe and linked a community thread.

Outcomes/decisions:

  • Display-side multi-currency is solved via an app; customers can view prices in their currency pre-checkout.

Open/unclear:

  • Whether full multi-currency checkout is possible without Shopify Payments remains unconfirmed in this thread (PayPal/Razorpay context not resolved). The Stripe-based approach is mentioned but not validated here.

Status: Partially resolved (price display). Full checkout in multiple currencies remains open.

Hi, I’m about to open a Service Store and I need to use a currency converter.
My main currency is INR, but I’d like to add Euro, USD and Pound.
I realized that if I don’t choose to use Shopify Payment Method I’m not allowed to have a multi currency store. Is that so?
I have PayPal as a gateway and I chose Razorpay as well. What can I do in order to allow my potential clients to see the prices in their own currency before the check out?
Thank you,

Elena
